Aloha from beautiful Kona… Couldn’t resist sticking around for an extra couple of days of W & R ( work and relaxation ) after the race on Saturday this time. Another plus to being mobile with my work! The race was another beautiful day on this course, one which is so special, sacred almost, as […]
Read More ›What supplements should I take?” is a very, very common question new clients and blog readers ask me.
